Sir Ben Kingsley is soon to be enshrined on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The Gujarati-English actor (who was born Krishna Bhanji) is one of 25 artists that will receive a star on the legendary sidewalk next year. Others on the list include Robert Downey, Jr., Tim Burton, Cameron Diaz, and Felicity Huffman.
Kingsley has been all over the silver screen of late, with roles in War, Inc, The Love Guru, and the soon-to-be-released The Wackness. Fans will be able to see him again a fourth time this summer with the release of Elegy in August.
He's best known, of course, for playing the title role in the 1982 film Gandhi. He discussed playing the Mahatma at length when he visited the Late Show with David Letterman earlier this month. You can also watch him giving a quick Namaste to Letterman as he makes his entrance, then imitates a Delhi taxi driver later on.
